There is a school uniform and, with parent's support, children are strongly encouraged to wear it. We believe there is much to recommend the wearing of uniform. Uniform helps the children to feel pride in their school and builds a strong sense of common identity and purpose. All items are standard school wear and can be purchased from any shop of your choice. Whilst we insist on colours, we do not insist on items bearing the school logo.
If you would like to order items with the school logo on, please order these online at https://www.pbuniform-online.co.uk/monkston Please note that you need to allow up to six weeks delivery time from the date of ordering. Outdoor fleeces are also available.
Second hand uniform is sold throughout the year by The Friends of Monkston, please email them at friendsofmonkston@hotmail.co.uk for more information on when the next second hand uniform sale will take place.
MK Storehouse hold a free uniform recycle event during the summer holidays. This event is open to all and no referrals are needed. During the last event, they provided basic uniform items for over 550 Milton Keynes children. Please visit their website for more information.
If your child is eligible for Pupil Premium funding the school may be able to help with the cost of school uniform for your child. Please email office@monkston.org and we will try our best to help.
Not Suitable for School
We ask that parents do not send children to school wearing high-heeled shoes or other unsuitable types of footwear. We also ask for your support in not sending children to school wearing make-up or jewellery. The only exception being for children with pierced ears who may wear one stud in the lobe of each ear, but, for reasons of safety, these must be removed or covered with a plaster foor PE and games lessons.
